Sequioa national park

Bucket List Crossed Off!

Made it to Sequoia National Park! 🌲

We arrived pretty early, but the drive up the mountain to where the giant trees live is not for the faint of heart — twisty, steep, and stunning. By the time we got up there, the parking lots were already full, so we had to make the most of it from wherever we could stop legally.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see the General Sherman Tree, but the other sequoias were absolutely incredible. Standing among them felt like stepping into Middle Earth — I half expected one of the trees to start walking and talking like the Ents from Lord of the Rings.

If you’re planning a trip, I highly recommend going on a non-holiday to avoid the crowds. Despite the chaos, it was still 100% worth it.
